In addition to the nearly 370 stores it already operates in mainland China, Fast Retailing Co.’s Uniqlo plans to open 100 more there annually for the foreseeable future. The company’s chief executive, Tadashi Yanai, told The Wall Street Journal that the total could eventually rise to 3,000—more than three times the company’s current total in its domestic market.

Mr. Yanai also said that the company is seeking to bolster sales under a new deal with Disney. While the retailer already sells shirts with Disney characters, the new partnership will run deeper. The two companies will jointly design products, including clothing and plush toys.
